Course: Side Dish
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Refrigeration: 2 hours
Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 1 stick butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup small curd cottage cheese
  • 1 cup unbleached flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2-3 T milk or heavy cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

  •  Combine the butter, cottage cheese, flour, and salt. Mix together. 
  • Form dough into a disk and wrap with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for two hours or overnight. 
  • Pull dough out of the fridge (if it was refrigerated overnight, let it come to room temp for about 15 minutes) and unwrap the plastic. 
  • Set dough onto a floured surface and roll into a 14-inch circle. With a pizza cutter, cut the dough into eight triangles.
  • From the outside in, roll each triangle of dough and form into a crescent shape. Set it onto a greased baking sheet with the small corner tip of the dough on the bottom (so it doesn’t flap up while baking).
  • Bake at 375°F for 30 minutes or until it is a golden color on the top.
  • Let the cheese rolls rest for a minute while you make a simple glaze.
  • Drizzle glaze over the tops of the rolls.

Glaze

  • Whisk the ingredients together with just enough milk until it makes a consistency that's just about right for drizzling.
